General Dynamics

General Dynamics has implemented OPC Systems.NET on a computer system designed for use on all nuclear powered U.S. Navy submarines and aircraft carriers.  Systems, utilizing OPC Systems.NET, are collecting high speed data from nuclear reactors and propulsion auxiliary system components.

The OPC Controls.NET data component is used to populate data from a custom Visual Studio application.  OPC Controls.NET provides queuing from Visual Studio applications with resolution up to 100 nanoseconds.

"OPC Systems.NET is the most comprehensive, easy-to-use, and flexible OPC toolkit for the .NET developer."

Philip Newman, General Dynamics – Electric Boat    

  JBT AeroTech

JBT AeroTech has used OPC Systems.NET to create an airport monitoring system called iOPS™ (Intelligent Operations Performance System) Suite that links maintenance management systems and aircraft avionics data to critical ground-based monitoring, diagnostic and tracking systems on gate equipment, baggage handling systems, facility systems and ground support equipment.  They have implemented data logging, alarm logging, web application HMI components, OPC communications, and .NET communications features of   OPC Systems.NET.

"JBT is very excited about what we have done with OPC Systems.NET and look forward to a very long term relationship with Open Automation Software"

Stephen Tatton Manager Business Systems & New Technology      

  Michelin Tire

Michelin Tire uses OPC Systems.NET for HMI, trending, data logging, alarm logging, and recipe management in their manufacturing facilities all over the world.  They utilize the advantage of 100% management components to deploy their applications as Smart Clients.  To provide global communications to each facility they use the Internet for communications.

 “We really like the ability to centralize all data in the OPC Systems Service to provide data to our remote terminals”

Stephen Smith automation engineer for Michelin Tire    

  Blue Pillar

Blue Pillar has implemented OPC Systems.NET to gather data from OPC Servers and custom Visual Studio application data to create a comprehensive energy management system for hospitals called avise.

“OPC Systems.Net is a product that takes all of the work out of creating .Net applications that quickly address the business needs at hand.  Instead of spending hours upon hours creating OPC level communications and worrying about functionality such as data logging, alarming, remote communication, and GUI component develop, this toolkit provides this functionality at our fingertips that allows us to very quickly get an enterprise-level application based on the .Net framework up and running very quickly.  Scalability? Not a problem…”

  Volvo - FEC

Mack engines are designed and manufactured at this 1.5 million-square-foot facility in Hagerstown, MD. The TC15 transfer case, rear engine power take-off and Mack Maxitorque ES T300 series transmissions are also produced at this facility.

  Shippensburg - FEC

Shippensburg WWTP is a 3.0 MGD facility servicing the city of Shippensburg PA, and is the first plant of its kind in Pennsylvania to respond to tighter government regulations regarding the discharge levels of ammonia, phosphorous and nitrogen. The process required the control of the level of nitrates in the effluent stream based on influent flow and current levels of dissolved oxygen in the system. Furthermore, nitrate re-circulation based on flow needed to be controlled, while also monitoring the dissolved oxygen levels in each tank based on flow and existing DO levels.

"All in all, I have to say that my experience with Open Automation Software

has been great."

Paul Wheeler engineer for FEC Technologies
